What Causes Bowel Movements Several Times In Morning And After Dinner?

Hi. I have been epereinceing this for a while and gettin tired of dealing with it. It occurs everyday. i go to the bathroom (#2) seveal times in a 2 hour time every moring (not eating) and several times in the evening after eating. most of the time it is runny and it gets to the point my butt hurts from wiping. After eating dinner within an hour I am having to go. When I have to go I have to pretty much run to the toilet to keep from going in my pants

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of urgency in passing motion and many times in the morning and in the evening after dinner.
The commonest causes I can think of are:
- Irritable bowel syndrome.
- Enteritis or infection in the intestines in some form.
- Some inflammatory process in the abdomen.
I would advise you the following:
Tests of stool on 3 consecutive days.
Colonoscopy.
Contrast enhanced CT scan of the abdomen.
Tests of blood for diabetes, thyroid and liver functions.
Clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon and Gastroenterologist.
If anything positive is found on these tests, get it treated properly.
If all the tests are negative treat this as IBS, that is irritable bowel syndrome and you may be fine with permutations and combinations of medicines and changes in the foods and beverages.

I find this answer helpful
